Our neighborhood is an extremely low socio-economic area in Austin, Texas. Our school computers are outdated and these students crave to learn by exploring technology! They want to learn the language through listening, speaking, reading and writing! iPads offer this and more for these ELL students. My 2nd grade students do not have access to internet, technology and/or computers at home and their young minds are longing for implementing the use of technology into their learning and researching. These requested five Apple iPad tablets will take them to places around the world to further enhance their knowledge. They can learn the English language in a variety of ways. They can learn about other countries, conduct research, read books from any genre and level, access current events....the possibilities will be endless for my students. Right now we have only one desktop in a learning center and I observe these students trying to read, write, and just so eager to use technology to help them in language acquisition. They enjoy educational videos, audio books, and conducting research or reading about current events.
